Before leaving Warren Dunes State Park, we drive to the beach for a morning stroll. Driving sure beats the safari desert crossing. We have the whole beach to ourselves, if you don’t count the few thousand sea gulls.

Afterwards we head east across Michigan, stopping once to restock the refrigerator and once in Battle Creek to check out Kellogg’s Cereal City. Tony the Tiger must not work weekends so we push on. Outside Detroit we stop for the evening at a public campground. The adjoining fairground is hosting a dog show so we walk over to it. We always like looking at the variety of dogs. Unfortunately it is a show just for American Bulldogs and Pit Bulls. Not our favorite dogs. Not surprisingly the owners are not your typical pet owner. The star attraction is a cement block sled-pull to crown “Iron Dog”.
